Not a Bosch, it's a Balay, (Spanish Hotpoint) bit like Vestel.
Cheap for a washing machine, but don't buy it just cos it says Bosch.
2 Year warranty though, but it has a Sealed drum so can't change bearings, spider or remove bra wires, coins etc.

It seems to me that from reading peoples experience and my own. Bosch items were of higher quality but now many are lower quality rebadged machines. This has a great deal to do with mindless managers at Bosch trying to squeeze out ever more profits whilst trying to keep themselves affordable. Today we have people moaning about £300 washing machines that come with a 5y warranty but will splurge £500 on a new smartphone every year.
Somewhere something has affected what we consider as value.

Caught up by the same Xmas hype looking for the next Washer or Washer Dryer. Tempted by this until the helpful info re. 3rd party manufacturers reducing quality. Was looking at JL own (AEG rebadged) but they have hiked the price for Xmas from lows in November (new trend appears common with White Goods this year??). Looked at the whole range of machines key criteria - 1600 spin speed and min 7kg load. Miele are expensive and the reviews show your not actually getting the 'Ferrari' benefits over the 'Mini' often mentioned..
Not desperate as current machine is 8yrs old and running well (Hotpoint Ultra W/D this time - cleans and 1600 spin leaves load almost dry - only use dryer on rare occasions) but recognise its only a matter of time!
Is there somewhere to definitively know if the machine is actually manufactured in Germany or elsewhere under license?
Got to say HUK discussions like this add massive value above and beyond the £20 / £150 savings shared.

Just to clarify this issue the reduced to clear statement was already present on the website when I posted this deal.
My assumption was in relation to the stock status not the reduced to clear claim.......this is a site that aims to help others not deceive people for the sake of point scoring or to gain extra heat.
I did a quick price comparison and John Lewis were the cheapest for this product so I posted this deal but if anyone can see anything cheaper then I will gladly give them heat also as this is what this site is all about unless I am mistaken.

Thanks
Hope it helps somebody....thankfully mine is working fine though
Was looking for a good deal on a Fridge freezer and stumbled across this
It says more than 10 in stock on the website so assuming it is reduced to clear you will need to be quick deciding if you want one.

You seem to knowledgeable about white appliances - which makes should one consider - for me reliability should trump a billion functions. Apart from Miele who else?

Why does Bosch allow to potentially have it brand tarnished by having some of its machine made elsewhere and not to its usual standards?

Why does VW allow itself to potentially have its brand tarnished by producing millions of cars which cheat emissions tests?

Is this a genuine German made Bosch or the cheap stuff sub contracted to Spain / Italy?

Most Bosch and some Siemens appliances are made in Poland since 1992- wide range, high-end/top of the range are probably made in DE.

It is only a little but more expensive at coop electrical shop (£299) so hardly a fantastic deal imo. Thanks for posting it up though!
